Sounds like a new Queen. I didn't like the old Queen. Not my cup of tea, won't be revisiting this album
Enjoyable, will be an album I'll return to.
Frank Zappa ain't my bag, baby. Stink-Foot is probably my favourite on the album, but I thought Dustin The Turkey sang about yellow snow better!!
Great debut by Irish band. If you like this then have a listen to English band IDLES.
Just found out that's Eddie Vedder on Watch It Die.
The 1st of 3-in-a-row amazing INXS albums. Each one reads like a greatest hits. Surprised they were not included in the original book, they deserve their place.
Didn't expect to like this, but it's something I'll keep coming back to, and I've no idea why!
An album that should be included on the 1001 list already.
Masterpiece of an album, how it's not included in original 1001 Albums is beyond me.
Inspired by Nick Cave, The Fall, Joy Division Inspiration on IDLES, The Murder Capital, Fontaines DC Great album.
M'eh. A few of the singles are good, but the rest is for whiney teenagers.
This must be how Andy felt after crawling through 500 This muat be what Andy felt like after crawling through 500 yards of shit smelling foulness that I can't even imagine.ive trawled through some shit on this user nominated section only to smell freedom in this album. Never heard of them before, but it's something I'll keep coming back to. It has perked my interest.
Not my cup of tea, not into prog rock, but better than most in the genre.

Was interested in hearing this as only knew the incredible singles off this album, sadly those singles are the only songs I'd listen to again. I loved their debut and 3rd album, but ultimately I'm a Carry On Up The Charts kinda guy, a superb best of collection from thst early era.
Britpop, UK indie, UK post britpop etc.. Is my wheelhouse.. But not this album... 1 good tune in Not 19 Forever.. But that's it.
No. Just no.
A few great tunes but not an album I'd return to again.
Does nothing for me, sorry.
I can't think of a time or situation when I'd say to myself " I must listen to that Primus album again."
Generic 80s American rock.urgh
Not today!
One of the best albums from 2024 (Underworld and James also on list)..one of the best Cure albums ever. .no, this is not recency bias...it's THAT good.
II'm no fucking Buddhist, but this is enlightenment
Anytime u listen to this album I'd give it a 5, but my rating system is a 5 star album is one I'll put on anytime and love it. So I guess I know I have to be in the right Aml headapace, which isn't all the time, so I'll give it a 4 But man it's a fantastic album. I'd love to see idles with Fontaines DC and these guys supporting.
An easy 5 for me, I'm the one who submitted Dogrel! They have really matured from that debut to this. An amazing live band if anyone gets the chance to see them. And if you want something a bit dirtier and grittier then listen to Ilthe band Idles.
An album I didn't know I needed, nor did I know existed. I absolutely love this.
An epic album, depending on the day I listen, it may be better than Dummy, it's definitely equal to it. Should have been on the original list.
This albums contains some of my favourite REM songs. Half A World Away, Country Feedback, Texarkana, Me In Honey, which happen to be all Side B, or Memory Side! Yes it's got the awful Radio Song and the instrumental Endgame..but with those two massive hits in Losing My Religion and the radio friendly unit shifter Shiny Happy People, this album is a beast. I still think my favourite REM album is Monster, which isn't in the book. 5/5
Where has this band been all my life. It's like listenting to the birth of Editors or Interpol 20 in 1983. 4/5, it could rise to 5 after many more listens. Now I have to check out the rest of their catalogue. Thanks to whoever submitted this, exactly what I was hoping to find with user submissions, an album/band that I somehow missed over the decades thst is exactly the sound that I love. Top tracks are 1) Second Skin and 2) A person isn't safe anywhere these days
Surely there's other albums out there that one could be listening to. Bland, run of the mill, pop.
Pearl Jam's first 3 albums are an easy 5 for me. This was my favourite when the 3 were all out. It's got Elderly Woman, rearviewmirror, and daughter.for a start. Three of their very very best tunes
I'm sure my 7 year old would find it funny. He thinks farts are funny. If you smiled at this then this album is probably for you. Grow up .
If PIL and BJORK did a collaboration, that they put the least amount of effort into and were both embarrassed by the outcome of their respective input, that they both vowed to never speak of this collaboration ever again, this is what it would sound like. I do like Mrs LENNON however. But by all the gods, the rest of it is torture (maybe I'll give Mindtrain a pass as I enjoy the groove they're in). I can perhaps see where Bjork and PIL got inspiration from, but they have musical talent that they trasform obscure ideas into amazing tunes.
Are Idles the finest new band in the past 10 years? I'd wager so. Could every album be their best album, I guess so. This album, all their albums, is what I want to listen to. Such anger resonates, and speaks about current social issues. From Ultra, I raise my pink fist and say black is beautiful
